You need to calculate 35% of 400.
The way I do this on paper is I split it up into chunks and then add the chunks together.
First I would calculate 10%. To do this, divide 400 by 10, because to get from 100% to 10% you must divide by 10.
So 10% = 40
You need 30%, so you just multiply by 3, because to get from 10% to 30%, you multiply by 3.
So 30% = 120
5% is half of 10% so half of 40 is 20.
So 5% = 20
30% + 5% = 35%
120 + 20 = 140
So they had traveled 140 miles when Joshua fell asleep. Hope this helps :)
Ok, so IDK if I'm about to do this problem right, but here we go;
so first, lets change these all to decimals (I more of a decimal gal)
3 1/2 = 3.5
3 2/3 = 3.6666 (repeating)
3 3/5 = 3.6
3 3/8 = 3.375
So now, just order them from greatest to least.
3.66666, 3.6, 3.5, 3.375.
Now, change them back to fractions.
3 2/3, 3 3/5, 3 1/2, 3 3/8
So, if I'm correct, the answer is 3 2/3%, 3 3/5%, 3 1/2%, 3 3/8%
Hopefully I solved your problem!
I need question for the "factor" problem
So...we can write eqn as
40x = 50(x-1)
so. -10x=-50
so. x=5
therefore .... the distance of 40 lb will be 5 ft ...answer !!!
